Techniques for identifying optimal routing paths for performing transactions between nodes

At least one non-transitory computer readable storage medium configured to store instructions that, when executed by at least one processor included in a server computing device, cause the server computing device to identify routing paths between nodes, by carrying out steps that include:

• receiving, from a client computing device, a request for a routing path between a source node, at least one intermediate node, and a destination node, wherein the request references the source and destination nodes, and includes at least one transaction parameter;
• referencing the request against at least one simulation graph to identify a plurality of candidate routing paths;
• identifying the routing path among the plurality of candidate routing paths;
• and
• providing the routing path to the client computing device to enable the client computing device to effect a transaction facilitated by the source node, the at least one intermediate node, and the destination node, in accordance with the routing path and the at least one transaction parameter.

A server computing device configured to identify routing paths between nodes, the server computing device:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing device to carry out steps that include:
• receiving, from a client computing device, a request for a routing path between a source node, at least one intermediate node, and a destination node, wherein the request references the source and destination nodes, and includes at least one transaction parameter;
• referencing the request against at least one simulation graph to identify a plurality of candidate routing paths;
• identifying the routing path among the plurality of candidate routing paths;
• and
• providing the routing path to the client computing device to enable the client computing device to effect a transaction facilitated by the source node, the at least one intermediate node, and the destination node, in accordance with the routing path and the at least one transaction parameter.
